I used to take Amway Salmon Omega 3 before pregnancy. Is Amway Salmon Omega 3 good and safe to continue taking during pregnancy? I want to make sure it's beneficial.
Oh, please be very careful with fish oil supplements because of mercury concerns, I spent nights worrying about this! Amway is good but is it specifically formulated for pregnant women? Please call your doctor right away and ask them to confirm if it's safe.
Omega 3 is highly beneficial, but during pregnancy, the ratio of EPA and DHA matters a lot. My doctor told me that pregnancy-specific prenatal DHA is safer than general salmon fish oil because of purification standards. Show the composition to your gynac.
During my pregnancy and even after my C-section recovery, my doctor prescribed specific DHA/Omega supplements. Amway is a popular brand, but please show the bottle to your gynac once before you start taking them.
Omega 3 is great for baby's brain development—I needed extra of it for my double trouble! But before taking Amway or any OTC brand, check if the heavy metals testing is clean. Ask your doctor for a certified safe pregnancy brand.
Yes, omega 3 is good for the baby, but please do not take any brand without asking your doctor first. It is always better to take what your gynac prescribes.
I would strongly advise not taking any over-the-counter supplements like Amway on your own. Please consult your gynac first to see if you actually need it and what dosage is safe for you.
